1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The disability determination process of the Social Security Administration's (SSA's) disability program requires assessing work-related functioning for individual claimants alleging disability due to mental impairment. This task is particularly challenging because the determination process involves the review of a large file of information, including objective medical evidence and self-reports from claimants, families, and former employers. To improve this decision-making process, SSA entered an interagency agreement with the Rehabilitation Medicine Department, Epidemiology and Biostatistics Section, in the Clinical Center of the National Institutes of Health, intending to use data science and informatics to develop decision support tools. This collaborative effort over the past decade has led to the development of the Work Disability-Functional Assessment Battery and has initiated an approach to applying natural language processing to the review of claimants' files for information on mental health functioning. This informatics research collaboration holds promise for improving the process of disability determination for individuals with mental impairments who make claims at the SSA.
